REDUCED RATES.
A Sweeping Change i'm Passen-
ger Fares.

SAN Francisco, August pa con-
ference between Railroad Commits
sioners White and Abbott and officials
of the Southern Pacific Company in
reference to Commissioner Abbott's
proposition to reduce rates of fares
throughout the State from four and
six cents per mile to three and five
cents, was held to-day, but no action
was taken.
THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC AGREES.
Railroad Commissioner Abbott's
proposition to reduce the local rate of
fare on railroad lines in this State has
been favorably considered by the
Southern Pacific Company. Commits
sioners Rea, Abbott and White met
in the office of the Board of Directors
of the company to-day, and after an
harmonious consultation on the sub
ject with the officials of the
railroad, during which the matter
was thoroughly discussed, it was de-
cided that the suggestions made by
Commissioner Abbott should be acted
upon so far as this could be done con-
slstently.
TIE REDUCTION TO BE GENERAL.
In making the change of tariff the
reductions in fare will be of general
and probably sweeping character, ap-
plying not only to those portions of
the company's lines lying with
in the state, but through Ne
yada, Utah, Arizona and New
Mexico, Salt Lake City and El Paso
all of these places being given the
full benefit Of the new rates.
READY BY THE 1sT PRox.
1t will require much labor to care
fully readjust the scale of fares on all
the different lines, but it is thought
that the work will be completed in
time for the announcement of the new
tariff by the lst prox.

Governor Bartlett Stricken
Down by Paralysis.
FEARS FOR HIS RECOVERY.
The "New York Times" Opinion
about the Boom in Los
Angeles County.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
SAN FRANCISCO, August 23.-The
news is made public to-day that Gov
Bartlett had an attack of paralysis last
night, and is lying in critical condi-
ton. The following bulletin has just
been issued by the physician: "Gov.
Bartlett is suffering from sudden
attack OF partial paralysis, which
came on at 10 o'clock last night. His
mind is perfectly clear and he is per-
fectly conscious of his critical condi-
ton. C. ANNETTE BUcKEL, M. D."
ELEVEN O'CLOCK REPORT.
Il p. M.-At this hour Governor
Bartlett's condition is unchanged.
He is resting easy, but there is little if
any hope of his recovery.
AT MIDNIGHT.
Midnight-Governor Bartlett is rest
ing easy. During the night he has
several times fallen asleep for short
periods, few minutes each time.
His mind is perfectly clear at different
times. He conversed easily, although
his voice was thick as it had been all
day, and he had difficulty in using it.
MEDICAL ADVISERS.
DIR. Perry and Mrs. DIR. Bucket are
still with him. Early in the evening
he was engaged in giving directions as
to the affairs of State and private mat
ters. He was fully aware of the i'm
minence of death.
HIS BROTHER PRESENT.
Columbus Bartlett, brother of the
Governor, is at the house and will re-
main up all night. He knew nothing
of the circumstances of the stroke. He
said that his brothers kidney COM
plant, with which he had been af-
fected for SO long time, had been ex-
pected to result fatally, but his brother
bore up cheerfully, although he knew
that death was rapidly approaching.
THE HOUR UNCERTAIN.
"He may die in twenty minutes, or
he may live week." concluded Mr..
Bartlett, who would say no more ow-

count of the suddenness of the para
lytic stroke.
SYNOPSIS OF THE CASE.
When the Governors health first
became matter of comment it was
generally supposed that he was suffer-
ing from malaria contracted in Sacra-
mento. He was so affected as to
make it evident that he must rest
as ii he continued to per-
form the Q duties of his office
his death would result. He ac-
cordingly left Sacramento late in May
and went to Highland Springs, where
it was stated that he was suffering
from Bright's disease of the kidneys.
lie GOT BETTER.
His stay at the springs, however,
seemed to benefit him, and his health
improving he removed to the residence
of his cousin, Mrs. DIR. Bucket, in
Oakland, where his health continued
to grow better.
ovERwORK DID IT.
1t is believed, however, that he
over tasked his strength, for he con-
tinued to direct State affairs, and pre-
sided at a meeting of the State Board
of Education on August Stb. He has
not been well since then.

LONDON, August 23.-In the House
of Commons this evening +. Robert
son (Liberal) member for Dundee, re-
ferring to the proclaiming of the Irish
NL'ional League said that he had ex-
aminej tn1 returns upon which the
proclamation was issued and he failed
to find any mention of the league. He
asked if the government would sub
NIT the evidence upon which the
House would b. enabled to decide
whether the proclamation declaring
the league dangerous on the specified
grounds of criminality should be con-
firmed.
THE REQUEST DENIED.
Smith, government leader said that
it was not the intention of the govern
ment's to submit any additional
papers.
HARTINGTON's OPINION.
Lord Harrington did not know that
the Government intended to proclaim
the League until after decision had
been reached, and as soon as he
learned the Governments intention he
sent strong remonstrance to Lord
Salisbury. Lord Harrington believed
the proclamation ill-based, dangerous
and unnecessary.

An EASTERN EDITORIAL.
What the New Work "Times -
Thinks About Los Angeles.

New York, August 23.-The Times
in an editorial, says: Among the re-
suits of the real estate boom in South
ern California is the remarkable in
crease in the value of taxable prop
erty as rated by the County Assessors.
For instance, the increase in Los An
geles county over the valuation of last
year is $57 ,235 900, or nearly 147 per
cent, while in San Francisco only
$2l ,S11 900 has been added to the as
sessment rol. Is this an actual in
crease, and can it be maintained? Is
it not rather the result of wild specu-
lation, which has temporarily inflated
values?

BANK NOTES.
Points for Discussion by the Com
ing Convention. ~


PITTsBURG, August 23.-Mr. Keppel,
correspondent and editor of the 4meri-
can Banker, says that among the mat
ters to be discussed by the convention
of bankers which meets here in Octo-
ber will be the question of uniformity
in checks and the use of safety paper
for checks and other papers. The
most important question will be some
plan whereby the collection of bank
securities can be secured by bond de-
posts, which will not bring the ques-
tion up every few years. The silver
question, and proper amendments
to the banking laws for the protection
of depositors in the name of the
banks, suggested by Comptroller
Trenholm, will also claim attention.
AN ADVISABLE AMENDMENT.
The amendment proposes that
where the president and cashier of a
bank are directors, there shall be four
additional directors to prevent collu-
sion between the president and cashier.
Congress will be asked to amend the
Canadian treaty so that absconding
financiers will not be secure from pun
ishment by crossing the border.

RICE RUINED.
what il to be Done With the
Negro LabOrers?

COLUMBIA, S. G., August 23.-It is
probable that the loss to the rice crop
will exceed 100000, the estimate two
weeks ago. A very serious question
now before the rice planters is what
disposition is to be made of the negroes
on the plantations until the first of
next year. There is no way for them
to earn living, and they will have to
be supplied with food. If nothing is
done for the negroes during the next
four months they will starve.
